Part 2:

• A psychology student at a university is curious whether students in different majors have different reading preferences, or whether reading preference is independent of major. After doing some preliminary research, she chooses 3 different majors and recruits 10 volunteers from each major. She then asks them to choose their preferred type of book from fiction and nonfiction. The results are listed below. Perform a chi square test of independence (using an SPSS two-way contingency table analysis) to determine whether the proportions of reading preferences are the same or different across the major fields of study. Use the weighted cases method.

The steps will be the same as the ones you have been practicing in Part 1 of the assignmentthe only difference is that you are now responsible for creating the data file as well. Remember to name and define your variables under the Variable View, then return to the Data View to enter the data.
